THE PROPERTY

Firstly, as you will see from the images, this property boasts a stunning (square

set) panoramic bay window in the lounge. Coupled with being south westerly facing (along with the windows in both the master

bedroom and third bedroom), the lounge is flooded with natural light throughout the

day. This dramatic feature is rarely seen in properties locally and provides the best of

both worlds with a fantastic view towards London and some spectacular sunsets as well as a lush, green outlook in the

immediate area.

The generous size of the lounge is another strong feature. At nearly 19ft by 15ft, the room is exceptionally spacious and means

that there is enough floor area to have a dedicated dining and lounge area without

crowding the room. In fact, you will see from the images that the current owners have the property set out this way and

there is still a lot of floor space available. Having these rare features offers a lifestyle

you may not get with other properties. Another wonderful feature of the lounge is

the entrance off the hallway. You will see from the images that the lounge door is

glass panelled as well as the wall it is positioned on. This not only creates an aesthetically pleasing feature but also

creates a lovely link to the kitchen whilst filling the hallway with natural light,

making what is normally a dark spot in properties quite the opposite.

Another unique offering from this property is that it does not directly adjoin other properties despite being in a purpose-built

building. Because of the building’s layout, you will note from the floor plan that there

are windows on all four sides of the flat (even in the hallway) which again make it naturally bright and means it offers a

secluded lifestyle as the property is not overlooked.

Added to the property's many great

features, it also does not compromise on practicality. There are several built-in store cupboards including a triple cupboard in

the hallway and built-in cupboards in each bedroom. The property also has its own

GARAGE and a lift in the block which many buyers will find very valuable.

The property has a very close community with communal outdoor space surrounding

Frobisher Court and along the neighbouring private road of Little Brownings which are all beautifully kept by Dulwich Estate.

These areas are well used by the residents and their children who enjoy playing out on

nice days. The images do a much better job of

describing the property so we highly advise you to look through the floor plans, the

main images and the 360 degree images (via the second virtual tour link) which will allow you to pan each room in the property

including the hallways to get a better sense of what this property offers.

THE LOCATION, RECREATION and SOCIAL

LIFE This property is situated approximately 0.2

mile from The Horniman Museum which is a very popular local attraction (and has

been featured in Time Out Magazine) , especially during the weekends with its Farmer's Market. In the summer its

bandstand is busy entertaining the locals and it hosts a multitude of other regular

events which are always a pleasure to attend.

You can read more about The Horniman Museum and its gardens here:

http://www.horniman.ac.uk/

There is a fantastic play park at the bottom of the road adjacent to The Horniman Museum and is one of many green spaces

within the immediate surrounding area which also have a play park making it a

very family friendly area. If the above is not enough to tempt you, a

more general view of the area will give insight into why Forest Hill has become

increasingly popular in recent years and has been featured on the popular TV programme "Location, Location, Location"

several times.

As well as having a Sainsbury's, Forest Hill is well served with a variety of high-quality independent shops, including a renowned

traditional butcher. There are also gastro pubs, a gym, cafés, delis and restaurants

to name but a few of its excellent amenities. However, if you ever desire a

further choice of establishments, then the

vibrancy of East Dulwich and Dulwich Village can be found a walk or bus ride away.

The Sylvan Post, a well-known pub, Canvas

and Cream and Stag and Bow variously host music events, exhibitions and craft days and, together with other local

businesses, have brought a cool and trendy vibe to Forest Hill.

Off the high street you will also find the

excellent Forest Hill Pools and Library which has recently undergone a refurbishment.

SCHOOLS

The property is in the catchment area for OFSTED rated "Outstanding" primary and

secondary schools which is great news for those considering a family home in the

area. Eliot Bank is a very highly acclaimed local primary school and it is rated in OFSTED's top 10%. It is also

approximately 0.3 mile away.

There are several other highly acclaimed schools locally making the property very appealing for buyers who do not have a

budget for houses locally. We also believe the quality of the local schools offer great

insight into what the local area and community is like.
